    BOSS 21 Just Gave up the ghost; brushes perhaps?

    Was working a hood, all is well. Turned off unit and set down to remove polish residue, picked up unit about 15 minutes later and...nothing. No odd noises, no `kinda start` just dead. Did all the normal checks like power outlet and such but no joy. Do brushes give out like that ir is it back to...

    Review: BigBoi Mini Air Blower

    To keep things `above board` and in the interest of full disclosure, I didnt purchase this item (nor did I get to keep it afterwards). One day a big Esoteric box showed up at work, followed by a call from them saying "Hi, we`re going to be releasing something I think you`d like; give it a try...

    Feynlab Ceramic Spray Sealant

    Kinda bought on a whim a few weeks ago ($32.95)...Feynlab has always been solid stuff and I`ve kinda taken a liking to their Panel Wipe as well. Anyway, it`s a very pleasant product to use. Seems to go on a bit `substantial-er` than some other products in this class and does indeed haze a bit as...

    30% off, $5.95 shipping...

    Bummer...

    My apologies to the country, will not be able to recalibrate the Scales of Justice this week. Called to confirm Federal District Ct. jury duty tonite and the recorded (and not altogether pleasant) voice told me to take the week off. They must have something big next week they wanna save me and...

    Kamikaze Intenso Window Coating...

    Anyone wanna try it? Just recd rhe 100ml bottle and really dont have 20 or so windshields to coat so if someone wants to give it a go, I`ll put 15ml or so in a bottle and send it to ya for free. Just *had* to give it another go, formula likely tweaked since I had a small bottle sent over from...

    Oh man, Ron`s influence casts a wide net...

    Always kinda been a black car guy, would never even consider white. Stopped at a Chevy store to pick up some literature, ran across this 2017 Arctic White Z51 Corvette and, unbelievably, was quite taken with it. With the body-colored trim pieces and chrome wheels, it just looked so classy that I...

    PPF...the good, the bad and the ugly?

    Pondering PPF and I`m guessing that (much like coatings) sometimes the hype doesn`t live up to the reality of the situation. Cost aside, for those that have experience with this kinda thing what are the downsides? I realize that if a tremendous boulder gets kicked up and punctures/tears the...

    Kamikaze Overcoat V2.1

    Bit of an update. Gave some of the new Overcoat V2.1 a try. Slickness and ease of dry application are much improved. Seems to have a bit more initial gloss and sharpness while still not being overly shallow and reflective...still a warmer but now somewhat amped up glow. Applied dry I sometimes...

    PA Master Sealant/Rapidwaxx & Kamikaze Infinity Wax

    Passenger: Kamikaze Infinity Wax Driver: PA Master Sealant + Rapidwaxx Will likely top the Infinity with Overcoat and will top the PA Master Sealant w/ PA Rapidwaxx...and then let it ride going forward. Middle contour of hood is bare. Just for fun, used Kamikaze Banzai Cut with Kamikaze Banzai...

    CarPro Essence & CQuartz UK 3.0

    Insomnia rears it`s ugly head which sometimes results in impetuous ordering, in this case Cquartz UK 3.0 and associated items. Have never used Essence before a coating, figr`d may as well give it a shot as well. Any recommendations on somewhat limited time between Essence and Cquartz UK...

    Aquapel...

    Thanks to a kindly Autopian who sent me a new unit/applicator I`m giving Aquapel a try on the windshield. Rain in the forecast on Tuesday, so I just stripped the wholly unremarkable IGL Window off (Jescar Medium on orange Boss pad, McKees glass polish/restorer on Rupes yellow), cleaned with...

    They seem to be having more sales recently...15% off w/ free ship over $50

    I believe it was less than 15 or so from what I recall reading somewhere (Instagram, perhaps?) I had some sent over a few weeks or so, maybe get to try them tomorrow if I can find a bit of time. I hear the wool pad is very nice although the descriptions of the compounds/polishes mention a lot...

    Using wool pads...

    Haven`t really given wool a go yet...any tips or tricks? Use `em just like microfiber, i.e. prime a bit, blow out with air between sections, fluff `em up occasionally (how, need one of `dem wool pad `spurs`?), etc? Thanks for any help...

    Angelwax H2GO

    Angelwax H2GO Still searching for the best all around glass coating. Have tried: IGL Window Polish Angel Rain 9h Pearl Nano Gyeon View Kamikaze Intenso The Kami was the best at hydrophobics/wet weather, just nutty but in dry weather, bug/debris strikes on glass was sub par, as it seems all...

    Beale Street, Memphis

    Wandering around Memphis yesterday happened upon a Corvette/Camaro gathering on closed down Beale Street. Kinda odd `style` of cars, 99% latest gen Camaros and Vettes and most had some kinda flashing, colored fiber optic lights on `em. Brake rotors, around taillights and side vents...was like...
